Making cards and projects that are always sealed with a KISS

Merry Little Christmas

Hope you all enjoyed the 2017 Holiday Catalog Product Spotlights that I blogged about last week. That was great fun. All the gals came up with unique takes on each of the products.

And, I’ll let you in on a little secret…

I bought the Detailed Gate just for that blog hop and now I absolutely love it! So, watch for a whole week of projects featuring that die!

Today, I wanted to show you how a simple piece of Designer Series Paper is really all it takes to create an easy yet spectacular card!

When I first glanced through the catalog, I fell in love with the Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper (DSP to those in the know!).

These first two designs were inspired by the work of Lori Pinto.

This card shows three different designs of the paper. I just love that plaid. I had to have this paper just because of that plaid! I created the layers based on the largest square stitched shape. I then added the sentiment and a little Black Rhinestone for some bling.

This card is basically the same as the card above.. but so very different. This is a prime example of “same but different,” wouldn’t you say!

And, here is the last one for the day…

This design was CASE’d from Mary Fish. She did a treat bag that looked like this. And, since it’s been awhile, I have done a project sheet for this one 🙂
